Interreg V-A - Spain-France-Andorra (POCTEFA)

Territorial co-operation

Programme description

The cooperation programme Spain – France-Andorra (POCTEFA) addresses the most important cross-border challenges linked to the implementation of the Europe 2020 strategy in the Pyrenees border region.

Strategically, within the axis "Smart Growth", the programme contributes to a strengthened cross-border regional innovation capacity as well as to an increased cooperation of small and medium-sized enterprises with the research and development sector across borders.

At the same time, within the two axes linked to climate change and protecting the environment, the programme foresees actions aiming at promoting climate change adaptation (axis 2), risk prevention and management, reducing the environmental impact of economic development and promoting resource efficiency (axis 3).
